Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this drive compatible with standard SATA ports?

No, this is a SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) drive and requires a SAS-compatible host controller or backplane.

What is the primary use case for a Mixed Use (MU) SSD?

Mixed Use SSDs are optimized for applications that require a balanced performance of both high random read and write IOPS, such as transactional databases.

How can I monitor the health of this SSD?

You can monitor the drive's lifespan and health status using the HPE SmartSSD Wear Gauge software.

What is the benefit of Digitally Signed Firmware?

Digitally Signed Firmware provides security assurance by ensuring that the drive's firmware is authentic and has not been tampered with.

Can this drive be hot-swapped?

Yes, it supports Hot-Plug functionality, provided the server backplane and chassis support it.

What is the maximum data transfer rate?

The drive supports a data transfer rate of up to 12 Gbit/s.

Troubleshooting

Drive not detected by server BIOS or RAID controller

Verify that the server backplane supports SAS drives and that the SAS controller is correctly seated and initialized.

Smart Carrier status light indicating error

Check the HPE server management software (e.g., iLO) to pull the specific drive health report and confirm if a firmware update or replacement is required.

Performance lower than expected

Ensure that the SAS controller is configured for optimal performance modes and that all cache settings are correctly applied in the RAID array.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Significantly higher IOPS performance than SATA-based SSDs
High endurance suitable for mixed-use enterprise workloads
Enhanced physical security with HPE Smart Carrier features
Firmware security with digital signing
Optimized for transactional database consolidation

Cons

Requires SAS-specific controller hardware
Not compatible with standard consumer SATA ports
Higher power and thermal requirements compared to some low-end drives

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This drive features a 2.5-inch Small Form Factor (SFF) and utilizes the SAS interface, requiring a server backplane or RAID controller that supports 12 Gb/s SAS. The unit includes the HPE Smart Carrier, which provides visual status indicators; always observe these indicators before attempting to hot-swap or service the drive. To maintain drive health, utilize the HPE SmartSSD Wear Gauge to proactively monitor the remaining lifespan of the SSD, which helps in scheduling maintenance before a failure occurs. Ensure the server firmware and RAID controller drivers are updated to the latest versions provided by HPE to maintain full feature compatibility and performance optimizations.
